Desbarres recently lost a lot of weight . And those who had insider information knew exactly why . He thought that his plan was seamless: but it actually turned out to be a trap! Most importantly, they were the ones who fell for it .
It can be said that the one who suffered the most loss was the Bone Symbol Camp . This was because the mission not only included Tie Sheng, it also had the camp’s most promising member, Zhao Hai . Additionally, with Zhao Hai’s close relationship with Margaret, the camp would be losing heavily if they couldn’t return .
Although it was said that Margaret went on her own decision, if something really happened to her, then it would be put on Desbarres’s head . And the Patriarch wasn’t a very reasonable person .
The only good news was the fact that the Zhang Family didn’t send any word that they had captured a lot of Experts from the Ashley Family’s External Hall . In the past, the Zhang Family would return the captured people and then send a warning to the family .
But if the Zhang Family manages to capture a large quantity of External Hall members, then they could use this as leverage to publicly break off their relationship with the Ashley Family .
Although the Zhang Family had yet to send word, this matter still placed a huge rock in everyone’s hearts . This was especially true for Desbarres . These days, it seems like he had halved his usual size .
Even if the family had yet to cause trouble for the Bone Symbol Camp’s Camp Lord, Desbarres himself felt very depressed in the past few days . Zhao Hai was the Bone Symbol Camp’s hope for revival . And now that he didn’t know when Zhao Hai would come back, Desbarres couldn’t help but have a massive headache .
Moreover, it can be said that Zhao Hai was the family’s primary representative in the Six Realm Beginner Competition . If Zhao Hai doesn’t come back, then the loss to the family would be too huge . This would cause Thunder to make Desbarres pay for his mistake .
With this situation weighing on his shoulders, no wonder Desbarres became so thin . And as the realm qualifiers got closer and closer, Desbarres’s face got more and more unsightly . The other Camp Lord couldn’t help but feel grief at the sight of him .
The Camp Lords had fairly similar states as Desbarres . Although some of them had their own authorities, the power they held wasn’t that huge . Among them, Desbarres clearly held the greater position . He was the Patriarch’s childhood friend and was a trusted aide of the family . This was evidently clear by Desbarres’s position as the External Hall’s manager .
But even if each Camp Lord had a competitive relationship, they were also allies in a way . Since the External Hall was a weak entity, they needed to band together so that they had the right to speak out .
Seeing Desbarres suffer bad luck, the other Camp Lords were also feeling bad . Even Dia who liked to take a jab at Desbarres didn’t say a single word about this event .
Actually, it wasn’t only Desbarres . The entire Bone Symbol Camp was feeling depressed . Zhao Hai just came to the limelight by defeating the other camps and emerging as the family’s champion . All of them were thinking that the revival of the Bone Symbol Camp was near . They didn’t expect a matter such as this to happen . This caused the Bone Symbol Camp to feel an unprecedented disappointment .
People were like this . If they don’t hope, then they won’t be disappointed . However, once they were given hope and that hope was shattered, their disappointment would be magnified by several folds .
The Bone Symbol Camp’s mood was as low as a deep valley . Although Tao Wang saw this, he couldn’t do anything . He was also feeling down in the past few days . And his physique was much worse than Desbarres . He wasn’t fat to begin with, so after all these days, Tao Wang was as skinny as a skeleton .
Seeing that there were only ten days left before the realm qualifiers, Desbarres and Tao Wang began to feel despair . Even if Zhao Hai managed to escape now, he still wouldn’t be able to make it to the qualifiers .
Silence conquered Desbarres’s office, he had lost any motivation and energy to speak at this point . Then suddenly, running was heard from outside . Then a person with a happy expression opened the door . He looked at Desbarres and said ,”Camp Lord, come out, quick . Something just came up!”
Desbarres looked at the person and said, “Something happened? What is it?”
The person excitedly said, “Commander Tie Sheng . Commander Tie Sheng is back!”
Upon hearing this, Desbarres and Tao Wang stared . They looked at each other for some time before they simultaneously stood up . Their faces seemed to light up . Then Desbarres asked, “Tie Sheng? Are you sure it’s him?”
The person immediately answered, “It’s him . Camp Lord, you should take a look yourself!” Desbarres and Tao Wang didn’t wait for the person to lead them out as they quickly ran .
When they arrived at the Bone Symbol Camp’s field, they saw people coming out of an enormous spatial rift .
These people were completely covered in dust . They might look haggard but none of them were injured and all of them had bright expressions on their faces . One of these people stood right by the rift as he led the others out; this man was Tie Sheng .
Desbarres took a deep breath . Then he quickly flew towards Tie Sheng’s side, his face evidently brighter than before as he asked, “Tie Sheng, what is this?”
When Tie Sheng saw Desbarres, he immediately gave a salute, then he replied, “Camp Lord, we’ve come back safely . It’s Little Hai . He used his spatial ability to send us here . ”
Desbarres looked at the people coming out of the rift . He scrutinized each person but couldn’t see Zhao Hai . When Tie Sheng saw Desbarres’s action, he couldn’t help but smile as he said, “Camp Lord, there’s no need to worry . Little Hai is behind the rift . He’s doing fine . ” Desbarres nodded, then his mood returned to normal . Nobody from the Bone Symbol Camp were among those who were currently pouring out of the rift . Desbarres quickly understood that the evacuation was done according to camps .
It didn’t take long before the people from the Bone Symbol Camp were sent over . When these people saw their friends, they immediately went over to talk . Before long, laughter filled the camp .
Seeing this situation, Desbarres removed the worry in his heart . Moreover, he could see that the losses suffered by the External Hall wasn’t that heavy .
It didn’t take an hour for everyone to go through the spatial rift . The last people to go through were Zhao Hai and Margaret . Zhao Hai’s expression was calm while Margaret had a faint smile on her face . As she followed beside Zhao Hai, she looked like a wife following her husband .
When Zhao Hai came out, the rift quickly closed . Desbarres immediately moved forward to meet him . Seeing Desbarres arrive, Zhao Hai quickly gave a salute and said, “Camp Lord, I’m back . ”
Desbarres grabbed Zhao Hai’s shoulders and laughed, “Good, it’s good that you’re doing well . I’m sure it has been hard on you . ”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “It’s okay . There’s no need for the Camp Lord to worry . ”
Desbarres gave a nod before he looked at the people from the other camps . Then he laughed and said, “Today’s a happy day . Don’t leave yet, share a meal with my Bone Symbol Camp . Tao Wang, send word to the Camp Lords explaining the situation . Tie Sheng, have everyone wash up while I go and report to the Patriarch . ”
Tao Wang also went over to Zhao Hai and gave him a tight hug . Only then did he go to arrange matters . Meanwhile, Tie Sheng nodded and led everyone to the Bone Symbol Camp’s building to take a rest . Desbarres didn’t delay and immediately flew towards Lofty Demon Island .
……………… . .
Margaret was currently inside a villa prepared for her by the Bone Symbol Camp . Also, this place wasn’t far from Zhao Hai . When she came back to her room, Margaret washed her face and combed her hair . Because of the state of the meteorite field, taking a bath was not an option . Although there were people who can use water element magic to produce water, the amount they were able to take out wasn’t enough for people to take a bath in . This was the reason why everyone appeared haggard .
Originally, Charles and the others readied themselves to return to their camp . However, Desbarres already made preparations for them and even reported the matter to the Camp Lords . Because of this, people from the other camps had no choice but to accept the Bone Symbol Camp’s hospitality .
At this moment, Desbarres arrived at Lofty Demon Island . Due to his excitement, he didn’t ride a car and just flew the entire trip . After arriving at the island, Desbarres went directly to Thunder’s study . This was also the place where the Patriarch did his work .
In the Ashley Family, there were only a few people who can directly find the Patriarch in his study, and Desbarres was one of these people . This was also a demonstration of Desbarres’s status .
Cadjo wasn’t in the study . He was the Ashley Family’s manager . Because of this, he couldn’t just follow Thunder like a secretary . Moreover, Thunder already had his own female secretary .
When Desbarres saw the secretary outside Thunder’s office, he quickly said, “Notify the Patriarch quickly . I have something important to report . ”
Naturally, the attractive female secretary knew about the relationship between Desbarres and Thunder . So she didn’t dare to delay as she quickly pressed a key and sent a notification, “Patriarch, Manager Desbarres is here asking for an audience . He said that he has something important to say . ”
Thunder’s reply was quickly heard, “Let him in . ” The secretary nodded . Just as she was about to ask Desbarres to go in, the fatty already pushed the door and impatiently entered the study .
Thunder was currently sitting in his chair while reading a document . Although computers were prevalent in the Machine Field, documents were still in paper form .
Desbarres bowed and said, “I’ve seen the Young Master . ” Thunder looked up at Desbarres and nodded, “Sit . Fatty Des, you’ve become thinner . ”
Desbarres smiled and said, “Young Master, you can rest assured, I’ll be back to being fat in no time . Right, those who went out for the mission have come back . This includes Zhao Hai and Miss Margaret . ”
Upon hearing Desbarres, Thunder couldn’t help but gawk . He placed the document on his hand down as he said, “They’re back? How?”
Desbarres quickly answered, “Tie Sheng told me that it’s because of Little Hai’s space magic . They’re now resting in the Bone Symbol Camp . I’ve invited everyone to a meal after . I’m sure they also suffered a lot . ”
